    EN3015. Humour and Horror in Early and Old English, went pretty well really. I think, fingers crossed!

    One more left now, HA3015, definitely the most difficult one. Roll on 3.30 on Friday! Have a fair bit of work done for it so I'm seriously considering going for a pint now....

    MA3052 - Ring and Field Theory.

    There isn't a FAIL pic on the whole internet that could describe just how badly it went. :(

    Ah Knifey, you seem to have had it pretty bad with the exams. Hopefully they won't have been quite as bad as you thought.

    Abstract Algebra tomorrow... I still haven't studied. This is a very bad thing.

    Yep, awful awful exam. I'll be seeing you in that in August!

    Yeah, 3rd exams suck. I think the lecturers have decided they don't want any of us to pass. I was talking to a few of the people I would consider to be the smartest in our class and they struggled to pass that one

    Ah I agree with Jay P, Knife. You're having a bad run it seems. Hope they work out somewhat.

    Made a silly silly mistake for which I should be hit around the head for in MS2001 but overall I think it went okay. Thank f*ck I'm finished, though I could be back in August for one or two

    My final exam went really well I believe.

    The poem called "Man and woman walk through the cancer ward" came up, and in a rather backwards and pervese manner, I was happy to see it.

    It was the poem I had studied the most, so I was able to write a lot. Although I don't think I'll ever write a more depressing poem in my life.

    Either way, finished yay etc. :)

    2nd last exam, Complex Analysis (MA3054) was today. Could have been better, could have been worse. I was at least able to attempt every question (even if I did prove, at one point, that 4=1! :o) so I'm sure I did enough to pass.

    Real Analysis (MA3051) tomorrow - then I'm finally free! :D Until the inevitable repeats in August. :(

    10%? Write your name and you'll get the marks. :P

    Also, I'm finished exams. Very happy. :)

    I had GR2007, essentially Greek History. Went okay. Topic on Pericles and his influence on Athenian Democracy as well as how the state fared with and mainly without him. Former question was grand, latter was a bit meh. Nevertheless, all done!

    The end is nigh! Just have to get over EE2009, Analogue and Digital Telecommunications. Should have no problem with the digital part but the analogue part was badly thought and the lecture material is very badly put together. At this stage though I really couldn't be bothered going through more badly put together lectures and trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Should be an ok test. Roll on 12.30 tomorrow.

    Here we go, one more and I'm done with this place... unfortunately its Neuropharmacology PT4005 :(

    Hoping for a good exam tomorrow!

    Studying for HA3015 (Approaches to the History of Art) now, some of it's interesting enough but by golly there's a lot of reading, and some of it is really annoyingly academic in terms of language. Because of the way the exam is structured-2 sections with two readings in each, pick one from each and no specific question, just evaluate it and situate it within the wider context of writing about art/the history of art-it's kind of hard to study for, just going over all the handouts and readings from the year and doing notes and hoping something relevant happens to sink in and relying on my ability to bull**** to get me through :( I'd be happy just to pass it tbh

    w00t! I'm finally finished. And my last exam (MA3051 - Mathematical Analysis II) went way better than I expected. I had it finished in about half an hour; spent the rest of the time colouring in my exam paper!

    Now I'm just waiting for my classmates to finish, then it's off to the Old Bar! :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 824 ✭✭✭Nova_era


    Well done to everyone for getting through them, good to have the exams gone for another year! :)

    I was wide awake most mornings at 9am too... I am a bit moody or depressed now!!

    I met a few people in my class and they all seem to be doing or going somewhere. I tried work everywhere - no luck so far :mad:

    Anyway I am so happy to finish the exams last Tuesday. I think I go back to bed!!!
